Insane slow loading times on SSD Battlefield 4

Hey, so i have battlefield 4 installed on my samsung 970 evo nvme m.2 (0.5tb ssd)
This issue started around august previous year.

PC SPECS:
i7-8700
rtx2070
16gb ddr4 gskill ram 2666mhz
samsung 970 evo nvme m.2 (0.5tb ssd)   game is installed on this one, as well is the operating system and the origin launhcer.
samsung 860 evo sata (1tb)

When i try to load into any multiplayer server at all, the load times can go up to 5 minutes!
i should be loading in under 10 seconds like i used to.

When i start loading in my fps drops from 100+fps to around 20-30fps
sometimes even going ot 1 or 3fps.
after the long wait it shoots back again to 100+fps and ive finally loaded in..
This makes it a pain to play and makes me miss out on alot of the beginning of matches.
(this also happens when the server loads a new map after current one is finished).

Ive reinstallled the game about 3 times since then and done multiple repair scans treough originMy ssd is kept up to date trouhg the samsung magician software.

Can anyone shed some light on what the issue could be?

    Thanks for your response!
    Everything seems to be okay according to the magician software, during loading the ssd only gives 1% usage in task manager with spikes to 5% very rarely.

    I am now redownloading it to my second ssd which is sata instead of nvme, if only the origin servers didnt limit my speed to 2 Mb...
    Ill post here once ive tried to check if the issue still persists there.

    The problem persists.
    i uninstalled origin completely, and reinstalled it, then installed the game onto my other drive (860evo 1tb ssd sata)
    i still have the same problem....
    takes ages to load into a map, with audio that plays double and stuttery, and on low fps...

    hmm so this thread basically says that running bf4 in administrator mode should solve it? ill go to the games properties and make it be like that, as running origin in admin doesnt help.
    thanks for your input and ill test it out!

    thanks this seems to do the trick! i hope origin one time will become an actual decent launcher.
